Monitoring

Erik Framstad

Main scientific experience covers population and habitat ecology of small mammals in boreal forests and mountain ecosystems. Applied research and consultancy work includes studies and assessments of boreal forest ecology, protected areas, ecological effects of agriculture and forestry on species and ecosystems, environmental impact assessments of infrastructure development projects, as well as assessments, indicators and monitoring of terrestrial biodiversity.

Main administrative experience covers management of NINA's research department in Oslo over > 25 yrs, as well as coordination of terrestrial ecosystem monitoring and major research projects and programmes on boreal forests or cultural landscapes.

Ann Kristin Schartau

Major practical experiences cover project management concerning research and monitoring in freshwater (rivers and lakes) and in marine environments (estuarine and coastal waters). Specialization on freshwater biodiversity and water quality. Project leader for several national projects on implementation of the EC Water Framework Directive in Norway: Design of a National Monitoring Network for Reference Sites, Design of a National Network for Surveillance monitoring in freshwaters, Evaluation of methods for monitoring and assessment of freshwaters c.f. the WFD. Experience from international work on standardization of biological methods, and different aspects related to the implementation of the ECC’s Water Framework Directive.

Major research experience includes: Research in population ecology of cervids (moose, roe deer, red deer and reindeer), particularly related to management topics. Research in population dynamics of fragmented populations of house sparrows, in relation to current conservation biological problems.

• Time-series studies of demography, feeding ecology, trophic interactions and other climate-related responses of seabirds since 1981.
• National mapping and monitoring of seabird distribution and population trends.
• Studies of seabird movements (using satellite transmitters and loggers), morphometry and population origin.
• Environmental impact assessments and vulnerability modelling, e.g. related to seabirds and offshore oil exploration.
• Well experienced with respect to electronic data processing and statistical analyses.
• Scientific supervisor for a number of MSc students and some experience as a university lecturer and examiner.
• Long experience in administration and science managing at the project, programme and department levels, and administrative head of NINA's field station in Røst.
